Day 2: June 16, 2009

 
Sorry but it was impossible to mail you as we are in the suburb and there no internet access in the hotel or around the hotel. All the groups arrived in time. Very tired but ready to discover Paris. In the afternoon we went to Isle of the city, the craddle of Paris. On the way we saw Chatelet square with a lovely fountain a gift of Napoleon the first, the palace of justice built on the site of a royal palace, the ged qurters of the french police where inspector Clouzot is working ! and we visited Notre Dame de Paris, a magnificent gothic cathedral. The weather was gorgeous and we had a dinner in the latin quarter.
